Acclaimed filmmaker and activist Michael Moore recently spoke out about the 2024 election, expressing disappointment and frustration in Americans for re-electing Donald Trump. Moore criticized the decision to elect Trump as evidence that Americans are “not a good people” due to historical atrocities and recent actions that have led to Trump’s victory. This sentiment is in stark contrast to Moore’s confidence before the election, where he predicted Trump was “toast” against Vice President Kamala Harris.
Moore’s scathing criticism extended to Trump’s supporters, labeling the former president as a convicted felon, fascist, and sexual abuser. However, Moore’s criticisms also encompassed Democrats and the Harris campaign, urging them to appeal to the working class and distance themselves from Wall Street billionaires and war criminals in future elections.
Despite his disappointment, Moore emphasized the importance of kindness and forgiveness in combating the negativity and division perpetuated by Trump and his administration. He called on Americans to be kind in their daily lives, to forgive someone, and to work towards unity and understanding as a way to counteract Trump’s legacy of cruelty and fear.
As Moore reflects on the 2024 election outcome and the current state of the country, he encourages a path forward that prioritizes empathy, forgiveness, and unity to move past the divisive rhetoric and actions that have dominated American politics in recent years.
